Not sure if this has been mentioned in the past, but the search feature in Nautilus 3.12 doesn't report any feedback about the progress of the search. The user can't tell when the search has finished.
In 3.10 there was a spin button on a floating bar (in the lower left or right) to indicate progress, but it seems to have been removed. I guess the rationale was probably that results are returned almost instantaneously in directories indexed by tracker, so a progress indicator is unnecessary, but if you're searching for something in a big unindexed directory like / then the lack of visual feedback is indeed problematic. Not the biggest problem with search, but a wart indeed. If you have time to file a bug report on bugzilla.gnome.org, that'd be great.
